“The Grove” docked off the coast of Mallorca after its first voyage.

Jeff Bezos (59) has a weakness for private yachts and sailing ships. And the Amazon founder can cost a pretty penny, too. According to the newspaper “Mallorca-Zeitung”, his last toy has been anchored off the coast of Mallorca since Wednesday. The first trip was a success. “The Grove” is the largest sailing yacht in the world. Cost point: $465 million.

The Giga yacht already has an eventful history behind it. This is due to the size of the sailing ship. True, she is only the second longest yacht in the world. Since the three pillars of “The Grove” are 70 meters high, it is still considered the highest pillar.

Bad eggs for Bezos

And that was the problem. It was built in a shipyard in Rotterdam (Netherlands). The owner asked the city to dismantle the heritage-listed Koningshaven Bridge so that Bezos’ yacht could pass. The residents of this area did not like it. They threatened to throw rotten eggs on the brand new luxury yacht. The municipality did not allow it. And “Protect” had to leave the shipyard without masts.

In Mallorca, the life of a billionaire captain is far less dangerous. It is not known what Bezos did in front of the island and who he accepted as guests on the ship. The wildest rumors revolve around the guest list. No wonder. Because four years ago, Bezos was before Mallorca.
